Wasting Fodder.
Vermont Wdtch7ndn.

A few days since IL neighbOr with
whom we were talking concerning cut
ting the corn before the frost came,
made this remark: "You won't care so
much for the fodder this year as you
have before, you have so much hay"
The corn was a little green to cut for
getting the most and best of the grain,
and the very abundant hay crop sug-
gested the thought that the cOrn-fOd-
der would not be absolutely necessary
to get the stock through the winter as
it had sometimes before, and so
one need not be as careful in saving it..
To the careful prudent farmer there is
no need of saying that such course
would be a most unwise and wasteful
one. The habit of saving should be
formed. Save not because one special
ly needs it at the time or in the near
future, but because waste is crime
against nature The Israelites would
have Jared but poorly in their years of
famine and the Egyptians have been
deprived of very profitable transac-
ton if Joseph had not in times of pros
perity and abundant crops laid up as
carefully in harvest as if crops had
been short. The lack of care of crops
after they are grown is double waste.
Not only has one lost the use of his
capital (the use of his land, but he has
lost the labor he has already put into
the crop, the manure, the blowing, the
planting and hoeing as well, and is
careless of the kind providence which
has given the favorable season and
made the crop possible. No judicious
man will be less careful in saving all
he has raised, or in careful and judic-
ious feeding, because his harvest has
been more abundant than usual, or
more than his immediate necessities
demand.

went, with a report that awoke the
neighbOrs for blocks around, and filed
the leaves of cherry tree near by as
full of holes as a skinner.
Then i thought of Tom, into whose
face had snapped the gun. The fact
that the cap had become damp alone
prevented the gun from being dis
charged and blowing Toms head into
smithereens.

vowed a vow at that time never to be
careless with firearms.
One more circumstance occurred at
ter had grown TO manhood. i was
standing on a pile of lnmber, busily
engaged in measuring lumber, when
hearing a "click" behind me, | turned
and there stood il boatman pointing an
army musket squarely at my head, and
sighting along the barrel. The muzzle
of the gun was only six feet from my
head, and he had just snapped it at
me. He was man so years old, and
under the first angry impulse that
came over me, said:
"You old fool, you ought to know
better than to snap u gun at fellows
head in that careless way 7"
cav, pshaw ~ said he, ait isn't load
ed" : '' ''
"How do you know that 7"
because it has been lying around
my boat for more than six months, and
know it isn't"
"Fhat's just the reason you don't
know anything about it," said |.
'Well, now, you're making such a
fuss about it, Pm going to get cap,
and show you. Here, hold the gun till
| come back"
While he was gone ran the ramrod
down the barrel and found that it was
loaded.
When he returned with cap l re-
moved the old and replaced it with a
new one. Pointing the gun upward l
pulled the trigger, and report follow
ed, the recoil from which nearly
knocked me off the lumber pile and
raised the boatman's hair on end.
"What do you think now 2" | asked.
"Well," said he, "that is the last
time l shall point gun at anybody if
live 100 years."
A damp cap alone saved me that
time, and though | should not have
been to blame, yet this event would
have blighted my life still more effect
ually than the first one, for it would
undoubtedly have blown my head off
my shoulders, and a man who finds
himself in that condition can but ac-
that his life is, in a meas
ure, blighted, and his future plans and
prospects somewhat interferred with.
Don't fool with firearms. If gun
is loaded, and every body knows it is
loaded, there is little danger. 1t is
the gun and the revolver which is not
loaded that goes off and kills folks, or
mains them for life. SO the only safe
way is to handle at all times as though
they were loaded.
Get into the habit of so doing, then
it will become natural and easy to you,
and you may be spared the agony of
gazing upon the mangled form of some
friend through whom you have let
daylight.
Always keep behind gun yourself,
and point the muzzle away from other
people. Tws

CHIMNEY GAPS
Prevent Cre0s0te and Smoky
Stoves, and Assists the
Draught.

These Caps have become very popular, and are
giving universal satisfaction. They thoroughly
protect the chimney from storms and prevent a
downward draft in the fue which coOls the bricks,
causing condensation of the smoke, thereby pro-
ducng creosote, which runs into the pipes. eating
them out, sOiling the paper, and disfiguring the
carpets. There very few housekeepers who
have not had more or less trouble of this kind,
caused by an open top chimney allowing the rain
to pour down and the snow to drift in, washing the
SCOT and ashes into pipes.
This can all be avoided by use of the above Caps.
No one would think of building house without a
roof; why have chimney without a Cap9 The
wet and frost will surely destroy them The Cap
assists the draught by keeping the f1ue dry and
warm, so that when the fire is started the smoke
finds ready exit, instead of being driven back
into the room by a cold damp fue.
The Caps are made from cast iron, thoroughly
enameled to protect them from the acids and
weather, and they will last life time.

see if they need repairs or protection. We are
